Firework display to go with a bang

Tickets have gone on sale for a spectacular charity fireworks display in Peterborough.

The Firework Fiesta will be held on Saturday, November 7 at the Peterborough Arena, East of England Showground.

Visitors can look forward to a truly spectacular display of fireworks by Titanium, the company behind national celebration fireworks such as the Commonwealth Games and New Year displays in London and Edinburgh, as well as live music.

Last year the event, which is organised by the Rotary Clubs of Peterborough and Peterborough Minster and Round Table, attracted over 8,000 visitors and raised £22,600 which was distributed to a multitude of charities and good causes in Peterborough.

This year there will be road closures to non-residents at Loch Lomond Way (from entrance at East of England Showground) and Dunblane Drive (from Orton Parkway entrance) which will be managed by Police Accredited Traffic Officers. The public will not be able to park in this area to watch the display outside the East of England Showground. Tickets costing £3 for children and £7 for adults are available by visiting www.fireworkfiesta.co.uk.
